WORDS
01 — The letter
The Storm Door
A letter most Saturday mornings. Life and how it's changing, music and technology, memories and old news.
I'm Jonathan Sexton aka JS the WLD.
I make stories with Words, Music, and Code.
CODE
02 — Billy Bob
The living memory
A database of American music history you can fly through. Three hundred nodes, three hundred and eighty threads — every one a line of descent from somebody to somebody.
MUSIC
03 — Before the pages
The songs came first
A Bonnaroo stage, an O Music Award, and a Guinness World Record he's still a little embarrassed about. He still writes and fronts a band, because some things don't clock out.
THE BOOK
04 — Years in the making
The Sound of Something More
Where songs come from, where they go, and where they take us. Written under the mentorship of New York Times bestselling author Kathryn Aalto.
SOUTH
05 — Who's back here
East Tennessee, by way of Nashville
Grew up up the road from where Dolly did. His dad handed him records and told him who played on them before he could read, and it mostly stuck.
He taught school, built a few companies, worked in technology, and studied AI at MIT.

Most Saturdays
THE STORM DOOR
Free, and short enough for one cup of coffee. Leave your name and I'll meet you there Saturday.
